About

The main aim is to quantify the changes in alemtuzumab antibody-anti-alemtuzumab over a 24 months period

Full description

Primary To quantify the longitudinal changes in alemtuzumab ADAs over a 24 month period.

Secondary

1. Relative occurrence of infusion-related reactions based on high alemtuzumab ADA levels prior to course 2.
2. Relative change in lymphocyte counts after the second infusion of alemtuzumab in ADA positive patients to assess the health economic impact of infusion-related reactions.
3. Relative change in relapses or EDSS score based on alemtuzumab ADA levels to assess the health economic impact of disease activity.
4. Relative change in relapses or EDSS score based on alemtuzumab ADA levels.
5. Relative change in T2 lesion number or Gd-enhancing lesions, and serum NfL based on alemtuzumab ADA levels to assess the health economic impact of disease activity.

Enrollment: 15 patients

Sex: All

Ages: 18 to 55 years old

Volunteers: Accepts Healthy Volunteers
